Day 1

Tuesday 28^th July

We began our journey from Toys 'R' Us to Dover, where we boarded the ferry, which was a good chance for us to stretch our legs for a bit. We had fun looking at the great views as we crossed the Channel, as well as a chance to start getting to know each other. 

We soon arrived at Calais, and settled down on the coach again for the last bit on our journey to Belgium. When we arrived at The Peace Village, we got to see the amazing facilities, including a great outdoor area! Everyone then had a chance to unpack and get settled, ready for a fun evening.

Once we had freshened up, we had fun playing some ‘get-to-know-you’ and ice-breaker games, where we got to meet madrichim, roshim and scanim, as well as each other. We had some picture fun with our new Tribe frames, before sitting down to a very welcomed, nice, hot dinner. 

 

 

The evening continued with an exciting game in the dark, where everyone had to run around and catch the members of the opposite team. This really helped to get us to all feel comfortable with each other, and a great way to learn everyone's names. This also helped to set the fun, action packed tone for Camp Kerach. We’re all ready and excited for the rest of camp! More to follow...
